In a beautiful, striking building (in the old concierge / guard room) in the center, on the corner of the Stadsparkeerlaan and the Haagweg. LEK Makelaars specializes in the sale of monumental buildings in and around the center of Leiden.
According to their own say, LEK Makelaars does things differently than other real estate agents. The motto is therefore "Are you looking for a standard real estate office? Do not call us!". At LEK they do creative making, 'creakeling' Ralph calls that. This way he ensures recognizable and easily readable (hanging) signs with QR codes to a mobile webpage with all the details of the house. And for striking canvas window presentations, professional photography and real videos (no photos glued together), and much more. You can go to LEK for the sale, purchase and appraisal of houses.
